摘要: Different embodiments of a one-time-programmable antifuse cell are provided in this disclosure. In one embodiment, a circuit is provided that includes an antifuse element, a high voltage device, and a sense circuit. The antifuse element has a voltage supply terminal to be at a sense voltage during sensing/reading and a higher programming voltage during programming.
